Pujols: .363 avg, 1.117 ops, 30 homeruns, 89 walks to 47 strikeouts

C.Jones: .358 avg, 1.021 ops, 20 homeruns, 73 walks to 55 strikeouts

Berkman: .338 avg, 1.038 ops, 27 homeruns, 16/19 steals

Braun: .304 avg, .941 ops, 34 homeruns, 11 steals

Ludwick: .303 avg, .977 ops, 32 homeruns

H.Ramirez: .295 avg, .918 ops, 28 homeruns, 29 steals

Delgado: 31 homeruns, .844 ops, 95 rbi, a million game winner/go ahead rbis and most of it came after the manager change

Utley: .293 avg, .923 ops, 31 homeruns, 12 steals



Random side note: Carlos Lee has a 100 RBI, which he's tied for 3rd. Now consider how long he's been out and is done for the year

Poopholes, no question

[cjkalt]

Sabathia is the NL MVP no question... Brewers would be way outwithout him

[HollywoodLeo]

Pitchers have their own award.

agreed completely. MVP is a hitters' only award

[love_that_reefer]

Brewers were in the lead in the Wild Card without Sabathia. C.C. just kept them in the lead. It is Pujols because without him the Cards wouldn't be the third best team in the NL. I will take Pujols 124 games of dominance over Sabathia's 11. I am just glad Ryan Howard and Sabathia weren't options!!

[Kingdom]

Why would Howard be an option? I'd rather have Utley and Burrell over him this year.

I think saying pitchers can't win the MVP is a joke, but anyway Pujols wins this by far, his walk to strikeout ratio is UN-BE-LIEV-A-BLE

Sabathia is a feared hitter.

I think it's a joke that someone who only affects 20% of a team's games can be considered the most valuable player for a team in the entire league.

[HollywoodLeo]

Although, I'm not as hard pressed against pitchers winning the MVP as I am non-rookies (ie Japanese imports) winning the Rookie of the Year award.

[Kingdom]

What if the import is as young as most highly touted rookies?

[HollywoodLeo]

If the import is a rookie, then sure.

It's not a race issue. It's an issue of whether or not the player is actually a rookie.

[DirtyKash]

Ryan Braun. Give me the guy whose team is leading the wild card over the guy whose team isn't going to make the playoffs.

[love_that_reefer]

Yeah poor Pujols being on the third best team in the NL What was he thinking leading a team who no one thought had a chance into contention going into the last month? Pujols' numbers are just too good!!
